Abstract
A computational experiment was performed to purify reprocessed uranium hexafluoride from 232,234,236U in an additional product flow of cascades with a specified number of gas centrifuges in stages. The method used in the calculations takes into account the dependence of the separation coefficients of gas centrifuges on their feed flow and flow division factor. A cascade scheme for purification with simultaneous production of low-enrichment uranium from natural uranium in the main product is investigated. The cascade has to feed flows with regenerated natural-uranium hexafluoride, two product flows, and one waste flow. The cascade parameters that increase the purification efficiency are determined. It is shown that uranium hexafluoride in the products of the cascade satisfies the ASTM C996–15 international specifications established for low-enrichment commercial grading.
